JAKARTA – Indonesia this week joined Australia, India and the United States in taking a strong stance against TikTok, dealing a major blow to the video-sharing platform by banning it from facilitating third-party e-commerce sales.
Trade Minister Zulkifli Hasan said on Wednesday that revisions to local trade rules to, among other things, ban social media platforms from offering payment facilities came into effect the day before, following a high-level cabinet meeting on Monday.
